Chapter Forty-Eight: Bai Ji
After walking a long way down the street, the lean man stopped in front of a tall red gate with a huge golden plaque hanging above it. In the middle of the plaque, the dragon and the phoenix dance are written with the two big characters of "Baifu", and the font is magnificent, and it is drunk in one go. This is the common script of this world taught by the village chief, and the woman in black recognizes it just by looking at it.
Two tall and majestic stone lions crouched in front of the red gate, and the steps of the red gate were guarded by two guards in armor. The expressions of the two guards in armor were originally a little weak, but when they heard the footsteps of someone coming, they immediately became energetic, and their eyes rolled, and they looked at the movement in front of the gate with a serious face.
And the two lean guards in armor found out that the person who came was a lean man, and the expression on their faces was obviously relieved, and the serious appearance they pretended to be gradually dissipated. It was back to the same lazy appearance as before, and even when he was standing, his back was a little crooked, and he looked weak, and it seemed that the two guards in armor often did this. The motor reactions are extremely "skillful".
After the two guards saw that the person who came was a thin man, they raised their heads and looked down at the thin man, with disdain on their faces, with a condescending appearance, and deliberately scolded the thin man in a light tone: "Bai Ji, what are you doing?"
"Uh...... Went out for some drinks. The lean man's small eyes rolled, and his expression immediately bowed his hand to the two armor-clad guards and replied.
The lean man looked at the guard in armor, although he was very respectful on the surface, but there was a faint flash of disdain in those small eyes, but it was only hidden in an instant. turned into a flattering look.
"Drinking, yes, you kid is living freely, but it's a pity that you are just a concubine of the Bai family." One of the guardsmen in armor was a tall, eagle-nosed man with a squinted eye, nodded slightly, glanced at his companion next to him, and gestured. Then he looked at the lean man with undisguised sarcasm and disdain in his eyes, and said slowly.
When the thin man saw the face of this armored guard, he counted himself, and the humble look that he had originally pretended to be had disappeared, and his small eyes were sewn up, and there was anger hidden in the narrow gap, and his tone was cold: "That's right, I, Bai Ji, am just the concubine of the Bai family, but it's not your turn to bully such a gatekeeper!"
Seeing that the lean man was angry, the two guards in armor were even more disdainful, and they all had undisguised disdain, without the slightest hint of restraint.
One of the tall guards in armor grabbed the thin man's collar with a few steps forward, as if he was carrying a little chicken, raised his big hand and slapped the thin man's face, making a crisp "pop" sound, and continued to count in his mouth: "Yo yo!" You're still angry, you're a concubine, and I'm not as good as waiting in the Bai family, what are you dragging? ”
This slap directly fanned out a red slap mark on the thin man's emaciated face, and a line of blood flowed from the corner of the thin man's mouth. But there is a hint of indomitable color in the little eyes. Staring at the tall guard, holding his collar in one hand, looking at his armored guard with a mocking expression, he squeezed out a few syllables from between his teeth in a low voice: "You wait to bully me, it's good, if I gain power one day, you will die!"
"You!" The tall armored guard's eyes were full of anger, and he raised his hand again, and he was about to slap the thin man's emaciated face.
"You fan, if I gain power, I will pay it back a hundredfold! You can't kill me, I'm at least the son of the head of the house, and you're just a little janitor! The corners of the thin man's mouth were hooked, with an undisguised sneer on his face, and his small eyes stared at a tall armored guard who held his collar, and his tone was mean and indifferent, unyielding.
The tall guard in armor looked at the hatred in the eyes of the lean man in his hand, but for some reason a chill rose in his heart, his tall body was slightly stunned, and he raised the big hand of the fan that was about to fan down, but he couldn't fall. opened his mouth slightly, and just squeezed out one word from his mouth: "You ......"
The tail note dragged on for a long time, and the tall man in armor was a little bottomless in his heart, the thin man was right, the thin man was at least the son of the head of the family, although he was a concubine who was not valued by the family, he really couldn't kill the thin man, although it was said that the possibility of the concubine turning over was very low, but there was also that possibility.
The lean man looked at the hesitant expression of the tall guard who was holding his collar and wearing armor, his face showed a hint of pride, and he sneered: "I'm afraid!"
The tall guard in armor saw a hint of pride on the thin man's thin face, and the expression on his face slowly became hideous, and he raised some of the big hands that he had already raised, and was about to slap down on the thin man's emaciated face again.
At this moment, the raised hand was grabbed by a big hand, and the tall guard in armor had a stunned expression on his rough face, and turned his head to look at the owner of the big hand that grabbed his raised hand, it was none other than another guard in armor who guarded the gate with him every day, and the guard shook his head at the tall guard with a solemn expression.
The tall guard in armor looked at the smug expression of the lean man he was holding in his hand, and then looked at his companion who was holding one of his hands, snorted coldly, and threw the lean man in his hand to the ground as if he was throwing a piece of garbage, and finally waved impatiently at the lean man on the ground as if he was chasing a fly, and scolded: "Get out of here!"
The lean man slowly got up from the ground, his face was hideous, his small eyes were full of humiliating anger, staring at the tall guard in armor, slowly turned around, and turned his back to the two armored guards guarding the door, his steps were a little staggering, his body was also covered with dust, and his back was a little sluggish into the tall mahogany gate. With his back to the mahogany gate behind him, the thin man had an extremely bitter expression on his face, turning over? Can I have that day?
That's right, this lean man is the son of the head of the Bai family and a maid with no identity, and he has no status in the family, even if he has no status, he is often suppressed by his brothers and sisters. After a long time, until now, even a guard guarding the door did not take him seriously, wantonly bullying and abusing him.
In the Bai family, he lived a life that was not even as good as his subordinates.
